Love Don't Leave

Her cheeks were red and cold

And I held her hand in mine

She squeezed it tight and I felt the warmth

Escape my bones inside

We saw a storm from far away

And we laughed as it wandered by

Then it turned around to hunt us down

So we ran away to hide and she said:

Love don’t leave me now

Love don’t leave me now

Her heart was beating fast

And I hoped that we could stay

In our hiding place where it was warm

And cold could not invade

We laughed aloud and talked of things

That happened yesterday

But the storm could hear our voices clear

So it came on its way and she said:

Love don’t leave me now

Love don’t leave me now

Well lives in love won’t last

If they won’t face the day

Will you answer this, she said

And I hoped it was just a game

But I saw her skin change before me

And cold became her face

So I took my hand from hers

And began to walk away

Love don’t leave me now

Love don’t leave me now

Love don’t leave me now

Love don’t leave me now
